    Hello,

    Yes rebuys and add-ons will count toward the calculation.

    Also please note the following Term & Condition that I have just asked to be added:

    ·         Only direct buy-ins to tournaments will be included in the promotion.  If you satellite or freeroll into a tournament that will not count toward this promotion.

    Just to confirm - if u sat into a tourney and and play it, In The eyes of the promotion u have played 0 tournaments?

    Or do u mean, if u sat into a tournament and play it, you will have played 1 tournament and your ROI is calculated as if you bought in directly?

    Hello,

    If you satellite into a tourney and play it.  In the eyes of the promotion it will not count towards your average ROI.

    There are technical reasons why we have to do it this way, but essentially we will only be looking at direct buy-ins for this promotion.

    I hope that clears things up.

    Thanks,
    Justin

    Thanks for the clarification on this Justin, even though I think it is wrong and discriminates against the smaller BR players who HAVE TO use the sats to get into the larger buy in tournaments.

    This is just my personnel opinion though, but I do think that overall this is a good promotion.

    Hey Max,

    I totally understand and would like to include players that satellite in but from a reporting respective it gets a bit messy because the buy-in states £0 and therefore would impact ROI numbers for this promotion.

    I hope this clarifies things a bit more.

    Cheers,
    Justin

    It's not unreasonable for a lot of recreational players to have at least £150 in their account (or 5/10x their satellite entry if they are using correct BRM) - especially if they're going to be playing 15x £5.50 BI tournaments or more to qualify for this promotion. If you want to try and sat into a tournament then just BI direct before you play the satellite. 

    @ Sky Justin: Got a qn regarding the SNG promotion. Do 18 man SNG's count in this promotion?

    I got a couple of questions...

    When is the first leaderboard going up the UKPC rake races? Is it going to be updated daily?

    I'm a bit confused about the wording in the promo page so just wanted to clarify. Am I right in thinking there is a rake race for <5k players AND >5k players in the first 2 weeks, then another 2 more rakeraces for both points tiers in the 2nd half of the month?

    Yes that is correct and the UKPC races should be updating daily.  The first report hasn't come in today yet....but should be up by 6pm.

    Thanks,

    Hey,

    No 18 man SNGs will not count for this....only 6 seated sit and go's will cound towards this promotion just like the Skill and Go promotion except there is a £5.50 requirement and you need to play 15 within the week.  Then a new leaderboard starts the following week.

    Cheers,
    Justin

    hi justin

    the £5.50 requirement applies to tournament ukpt mtt promotion.  this is clear in the terms.

    the sng ukpt challenge did not have this as a requirement.

    i have been playing a range of sit and goes.  i would be disappointed if a new requirement has been added after the commencement.

    please can you confirm.

    thanks

    I've entered the code but not appearing in the results table for the rake race although I have 512 points which should put me around 24th in race #1

    lol - I bink a 2nd in sky roller mini and that puts me 2nd in table.

    What to do now? 

    If i play and have a bad run it will ruin my ROI and potentially I could lose a packaage worth £1500. 

    So I guess I am going to not playing on SKY for the rest of the month and hope I can hang to a spot!

    Gl all and see you in June!!
